What should people do without goals?

Without goals, we won't work hard, because we don't know why we should work hard. Like a ship in the sea. I don't know where the dock is. What's the use of refueling?

Without goals, we lose opportunities, luck and the support of others almost at the same time. Because I don't know what I really want, nothing can help him: just like a ship in the sea, if I don't know where the dock is, I don't know what the downwind is for it.

Harvard University has a very famous follow-up survey on the impact of goals on life. The target is a group of young people with similar intellectual, educational and environmental conditions. Survey found

27% people have no goals;

60% people have vague goals;

10% people have clear but relatively short-term goals;

3% people have clear long-term goals.

After 25 years of follow-up research, their living conditions and distribution are very interesting.

3% people have hardly changed their life goals in the past 25 years. In the past 25 years, they have made unremitting efforts in the same direction. Twenty-five years later, almost all of them have become top successful people in all walks of life, including self-made entrepreneurs, industry leaders and social elites.

People who account for 10% have clear short-term goals, and most of them live in the upper and middle classes of society. Their common characteristics are the continuous realization of short-term goals, the steady rise of living conditions, and becoming indispensable professionals in all walks of life. Such as doctors and lawyers. Engineers, executives, etc.

Among them, 60% fuzzy objects live in the middle and lower classes of society. They can live and work in peace and contentment, but they have no special achievements.

The remaining 27% are people who have no goals for 25 years, and almost all of them live at the bottom of society. Their life is very unsatisfactory, they are often unemployed, rely on social relief, and often complain about others, society and the world.

Therefore, the investigators come to the conclusion that goals have a great guiding role in life. Success, at the beginning, is just a choice for yourself. What kind of goals you choose, what kind of achievements you will have, and what kind of life you will have.

Now you can stop reading the following text, take a few minutes to think about it and ask yourself, do you have any goals? Is that clear? How long is the goal? What kind of people did you belong to: 27%, 60%, 10%, 3%? What kind does it belong to now? Or decide now what kind of person you want to belong to in the future?

Today's life state is not determined by today, it is the result of our past life goals: tomorrow's life state is not determined by the future, it will be the result of our today's life goals.

The target is the navigation light of action.

Without goals, we won't work hard, because we don't know why we should work hard. Like a ship in the sea. I don't know where the dock is. What's the use of refueling?

Without goals, we lose opportunities, luck and the support of others almost at the same time. Because I don't know what I really want, nothing can help him: just like a ship in the sea, if I don't know where the dock is, I don't know what the downwind is for it.

So, the power of the goal is:

1, set a clear direction for people's behavior and let people fully understand the purpose of each behavior.

2, let yourself know what is the most important, which helps to arrange your time reasonably.

3. Force yourself to plan ahead and seize today.

4. Let people clearly evaluate the progress of each behavior and actively review the efficiency of each behavior.

5. Let people shift their focus from the work itself to the work result.

6. Let people "see" the results before they get them, thus generating continuous confidence, enthusiasm and motivation.

I hope my answer can help you.
